Sporting Charleroi took the lead on the 12th minutes, thanks to a good finish from Dorian Dessoleil, Partizan Belgrade restored the parity early in the second half when Takuma Asano set up Seydouba Soumahin the 57th minutes.
Both sides failed to find the winner within the 90 minutes and the game was decided with a goal scored in the extra time by Kaveh Rezaei.
